Congress, Policy Sustainability, and the Affordable Care Act
When crafting and passing health care reform, did policy makers appreciate and attempt to address potential implementation and sustainability challenges, or were they largely oblivious to the reality that adoption of the Affordable Care Act (ACA) would not automatically settle its future? Utilizing in-depth, in-person interviews with the key congressional actors who were most directly involved in the ACA’s genesis and approval, I examine this her…

Compromising Partisans
Intense partisanship and the permanent election mentality permeate Congress, such that bipartisanship is rare. Yet we contend that in overlooking intra-party compromises, observers both exaggerate the negative implications of partisan polarization and inflate the merits of inter-party cooperation. We show that in situations of unified government in this polarized era, meaningful compromises to enact major legislation may occur within heterogeneou…
Congress, Health Care Reform, and Reconciliation
This article explores the role of reconciliation in the passage of health care reform in the 111th Congress. Although counterintuitive, the analysis suggests that the loss of a filibuster-proof super-majority with the election of Senator Scott Brown (R-MA) aided Democrats in clearing the overhaul package by facilitating the use of reconciliation. Reconciliation provided the critical procedural mechanism enabling health care reform to be enacted i…
Human embryonic stem cell research and Proposition 71
In response to former President George W. Bush's funding limitations on human embryonic stem cell (hESC) research, California voters in 2004 passed Proposition 71, the most expansive state-funded medical research initiative in United States history. This study examines California's experiment in the life sciences, a particularly fitting analysis now as President Barack Obama has freed up additional federal funding for hESC research. In addition t…
Deciding on human embryonic stem cell research
This paper examines the influences that congressional staff people viewed as important in shaping legislators' voting decisions on the human embryonic stem (ES) cell research bill in the 109th Congress, the first legislation vetoed by President George W. Bush. The analysis illuminates factors that impact congressional decision making on a salient issue with a strong moral component. Constituent concerns, ideology, and a desire to make good public…
Dollars, disease, and democracy
The National Institutes of Health (NIH) Director's Council of Public Representatives (COPR) was established in 1998 as an advisory council to the NIH director and NIH's only wholly “public” advisory group. COPR's stated objective was, and remains, to strengthen and formalize public input into funding-allocation decisions for biomedical research by the NIH, the single largest sponsor of such research. Yet, to date, COPR's work and effectiveness ha…

Representatives' Involvement in Foreign and Defense Policv Issues
In this paper I build upon existing literature and theories in examining whether the influences affecting a representative's decisions about participation in foreign and defense policy issues vary by particular issue characteristics. 1 propose and test a model of decision making on questions of participation in foreign and defense policy issues that incorporates the potential impact of issue characteristics. While considerable similarities in the…

Congress, the War Powers Resolution, & the Invasion of Panama
In significant military initiatives prior to the 1989 Panama invasion, presidential disregard for the War Powers Resolution drew congressional criticism. Panama was different. Despite the President's failure to comply with the law, Congress remained virtually silent about the War Powers Resolution. This article explores the reasons for and the implications of the congressional silence in the case of Panama
